Which actor plays Captain Bombardier in Season 3?
Answer
Jack Black
Answer
Jack Black
Jack Black plays Captain Bombardier in The Mandalorian season 3. Bombardier is the former Imperial official who serves as the husband of the Duchess of Plazir-15.
The character appears in “Chapter 22: Guns for Hire,” when Din Djarin and Bo-Katan Kryze visit Plazir-15. The planet is presented as a prosperous, highly automated society governed by the Duchess and Bombardier. Their peaceful image is threatened by rogue droids, leading Din and Bo-Katan into an investigation involving Commissioner Helgait, played by Christopher Lloyd.
Jack Black’s casting is easy to confuse with the season’s other recognizable guest stars. Lizzo plays the Duchess, Christopher Lloyd plays Helgait, Ahmed Best appears as Kelleran Beq, and Tim Meadows plays Colonel Tuttle. Black’s role is also notable because the character’s title describes a political office rather than a military combat role, despite the word “Captain.”
